Hi mike, A question on the 6th bar of Don't Stop, the last two triads are in (), on the full performance tab with guitar 3. What does this mean? Also I really thank you for your work on the rolling stones songs. I grew up on these classics.

Great question! The parentheses mean ghost notes --- you can play those strums very lightly or not at all -- they're optional. Either way still sounds correct.

Make sense?

Thanks!

JimBob, Thanks for asking that question to Mike.

Ok now I know more or less that the () is not that crucial. I am working on the solo for Its All Over Now. I try to parrot and play note for note on the tabs and the () was kinda of confusing. I have been on GT for awhile and duh on my part. I just learned something new by reading the forum.

Oh by the way. For the millionth time, thanks for cranking out the stones lessons Mike. It has really kept me busy all winter.
